Thanks homie!No power loss. I don’t think the resonators add much back pressure they are straight through.

I think I’m going to delete the centre middle resonator. That I think will give the car the that extra sound without getting too much.You do realize that most cars don’t actually get obnoxiously loud when you just delete either the resonator(s) and/or the muffler of the stock exhaust...it can sometimes add just enough added volume without being annoying and is much cheaper than buying an aftermarket system...that’s what OP is looking for and to be honest I’m looking for the same thing. Assuming it doesn’t cause the car to become too raspy, I’m interested in entertaining this option once I get feedback and sound clip/videos from people who have done this.
That is exactly how I did it. Exhaust sound is so subjective just try it out and if you like it go for the second resonator it just gives it a little more sound. At some point I may go for the HKS Legamax I just don’t like the looks of the two tips...I think I’m going to delete the centre middle resonator.

I think that’s a safe bet.... if I need more I might delete the smaller first resonator too.
I believe Legamax now comes with a Tri-tip option.That is exactly how I did it.

Sweet, please let me know how it turns out if you do this. Would love the feedback and a before and after sound clip if possible.I think I’m going to delete the centre middle resonator. That I think will give the car the that extra sound without getting too much.

I don’t believe so. Both HKS exhausts come 2tips. Legamax and Hi-Power. I know they’re making that single tip exhaustI believe Legamax now comes with a Tri-tip option.
Guys
I like how the OEM exhaust looks and just want to make it sound a little louder.
I’m thinking a possible muffler delete (2 outer ones) or the centre resonator delete....or both.
Anyone here have one or the other or both and any recommendations?
I found some threads on the topic in the Si forums and not much in the FK8 group.
Cheers
Whoa, where did you read that? I have been hoping for a tri tip version of the Legamax forever.I believe Legamax now comes with a Tri-tip option.
I've looked into this and it would have to be a 2.5", bbuuutttt there is no room to put the cutout due to how m=large of an area you need to fit the operator motor. I actually bought one and got under the car and tried everything i could to get it to fit in many different spots. The exhaust channeling is too small to house the system, sadlyDump valve= all the sound and exhaust flow you could want and stock quiet at the push of a button. Example product below:

I think I have a few possible locations. PM me or We can start a Dump valve thread and I will help you work it out.I've looked into this and it would have to be a 2.5", bbuuutttt there is no room to put the cutout due to how m=large of an area you need to fit the operator motor.
